I've had this lens for years, came for free with my Rebel, but came to watch anyways. Glad to see another Florida photographer. I started using it again lately and you're right that the mid-range aperture is where this lens should be at. Chromatic aberration can be fixed in post' but ghosting has no return, so low aperture in strong light can ruin shots. I only use a CPL though, no ND, and sometimes a UV just to catch ocean spray. The EF-S 55-250mm is a better option but I don't own one. The EF 75-300mm can also work for portraits if you have a hotshoe flash.

I’d always been interested in the 55-250 as an option mostly because of the image stabilization. And hello fellow Floridian! A lot of it can be fixed and I’ve only really noticed the ghosting on smaller objects myself really but in all it’s a good option to throw into a bag if you want something you don’t mind knocking around a bit

I traded my 75-300 for a used 55-250 at KEH for super cheap. The IS was the main reason. It does also seem sharper. But it was still fun to play with while learning about long focal lengths as a beginner (which i still am).

I have a Quantaray 75-300 EF lens that is f/4-5.6. It has autofocus but I use the manual focus more. I have a Canon EOS-M and a viltrox speed booster. It makes the lens a full stop faster (f/2.8-f/4). I get some interesting photos this way. I also have a Canon SL2 that I took some moon photos with the Quantaray lens.

I use Sigma 17-50 2.8 for canon. Even if the camera is turned off, I can see through my viewfinder, the lenses is shaking. It shakes during video and then it slightly tilts photos to the right, any idea sir? Heard Sigma lenses have these kinds of problems 😢

Depends on the focal length you’re looking for. If you’re still looking for something in the 70-300 range or what not the Tamron 70-210 f/4 is a solid choice that has good AF and image stabilization. It would cost you around $400 or so depending on if you find it on deal. Alternatively canon has released some newer RF telephoto lenses that may fight the bill without having to adapt that are a little more expensive but also have a varying aperture at lower and higher magnification

I think you should get some really good snaps with it under certain conditions, if you’re shooting in lower light or at night you’ll suffer from lack of image stabilization, slower shutter speeds will create too much motion blur unless that’s your style, if you’re shooting during the morning or day I would keep the shutter speed around 1/320 or faster to capture the action without a lot of blur, as for the R100 I unfortunately haven’t used the newer Canon EOS R APS-C cameras but I think you should get some solid images
